EA Announces The Simpsons Game

The World’s Favorite Animated Family Comes To
Consoles and Handhelds This Fall!

Electronic Arts Inc. today announced the upcoming
release of THE SIMPSONS GAME (working title). Created in partnership with Gracie
Films and Twentieth Century Fox Television and Twentieth Century Fox Licensing
and Merchandising, THE SIMPSONS GAME features a hilarious, sprawling, and
mind-busting storyline crafted by the TV show’s Emmy Award-winning writers. The
action-comedy will also feature the full cast of voice actors from the TV show
who will reprise their roles for the game.

In THE SIMPSONS GAME, Homer, Marge, Bart, and
Lisa use exciting, all-new powers to save the world from rising chaos. To help
the Simpsons, gamers at home must journey through all of Springfield (as well as
vast worlds beyond!), vanquish an amazing array of villains, and fight their way
through parodies of multiple popular games.

“Our goal in developing THE SIMPSONS GAME is to
create the most original game ever, which is a lofty goal and only possible
given the close collaboration with

‘The Simpsons’ creative team,” said Scot Amos,
Executive Producer of the project. “We’re also especially proud of the game’s
warm visual feel, which captures – for the first time ever in a game – the look
of the TV show.” Added Amos, “As Comic Book Guy says, ‘Best. Simpsons Game.
Ever!’”

“The EA group was so enormously talented and
beyond belief energetic that I am thinking of suing for second hand exhaustion,”
said James L. Brooks, Executive Producer of “The Simpsons.”

Under development by EA’s Redwood Shores Studio,
THE SIMPSONS GAME is scheduled for release in Fall 2007 for the PLAYSTATION 3,
PlayStation 2, PSP, Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii and Nintendo DS.
